Animal Whisperer: Take Back My Life and Love Chapter 167: The Crow Bodyguard

"When I have it all organized, I'll package it and hand it directly to the state! Let professional, reliable people do the screening and the training."

Nancy was already happily calculating in her head: in the future, she might be able to cooperate with the state. She and the furry ones at the zoo would be responsible for leading a group of "animal language specialists."

In the future, the small animals could even be promoted to mentors!

The state would be responsible for providing official positions and allocating funds.

Was this not a dream becoming reality?

Having finally seen off the three titans, who had become more and more excited the more they talked, Nancy hopped in place. She turned and grabbed Autumn's arm, shaking it back and forth. "Autumn! Let's go, let's go. We must go out to eat today! It's my treat!"

"Barbecue or crawfish, take your pick! We took a historic step today!"

Inside a popular restaurant.

The soup base bubbled and rolled, and the dense steam, carrying the aroma of beef tallow, spread through the air.

Autumn was briskly scalding a piece of beef tripe, her face overflowing with a satisfied smile. "To be honest, Miss Nancy, I really love Loren Zoo!" Getting in here is the luckiest thing that has happened to me since graduation."

The salary was higher than that of her classmates, there was no overtime, the small animals were incredibly cute, and most importantly, she was following a great leader!

Just as Autumn finished speaking, her phone screen suddenly lit up as a new message popped up.

She clicked it out of habit, and the smile on her face froze instantly. She even forgot to put the tripe she was holding into her mouth.

Nancy was bowing her head to mix a dipping sauce of sesame oil and minced garlic. Looking up, she saw Autumn's dazed expression and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? You suddenly started daydreaming. The tripe is almost overcooked."

Autumn put down her fork and turned the phone screen toward Nancy, her voice dropping. "Do you remember that senior I mentioned before, the one who worked at Summers Corp Veterinary Hospital and resigned because of an anxiety disorder?"

"She just sent me a message... she said things have actually gotten worse after leaving. She hasn't slept for almost two days."

Autumn swiped to a photo, her tone heavy. "Look, she just took this... she said a huge clump of hair fell out while washing her head. It hurts just looking at it."

In the photo, a shocking amount of shed hair lay by the bathroom sink, accompanied by a line of text from the senior: "Autumn, I don't think I can hold on much longer."

Nancy put down her fork, her brow furrowing slightly. "That doesn't seem right. Hasn't she already left the oppressive environment of Summers Corp? Why has the situation become more serious instead?"

Autumn let out a sigh, her voice full of worry. "She said she keeps having nightmares, repeatedly returning to those stifling scenes at the Summers Corp Veterinary Hospital in her dreams."

"And the old urban district where she lives hasn't been peaceful lately. There was a home invasion and burglary, and I heard the person hasn't been caught yet..."

"She already has neurasthenia, and now this is making things even worse. She doesn't even dare to go out alone during the day."

Autumn paused and looked at Nancy. "I really can't stop worrying. I'm planning to go see her."

Nancy nodded immediately. "I'll go with you."

Another thought was quietly turning in her mind.

Perhaps she could take this opportunity to see if she could find that brazen thief. It would both relieve her senior's anxiety and allow the residents of the entire community to feel at peace.

The two of them finished their meal in a whirlwind, preparing to buy some sympathy gifts for the senior.

Nancy wiped her mouth and suddenly thought of something. "Wait, let me make a call for help. I'll get a bodyguard to back us up!"

They were four kilometers away from the zoo, but for Nancy, distance was never an issue.

Autumn nodded obediently. "Okay."

Nancy pulled out her phone and skillfully dialed a number. A moment later, Autumn clearly heard a series of raspy "Caw! Caw-caw!" sounds from the other end.

This bodyguard's voice... was quite unique. Was it a raspy, duck-like voice?

That was right; Nancy had called Master Crow, who was wearing a smart watch.

"Master Crow, I'm going to see a friend tonight. Can you come over and be a bodyguard for a while?"

Nancy's tone was earnest and flattering. "I'm at the plaza with the white pigeon statue. It's only four kilometers from the zoo. It'll take you ten minutes at most to fly here!"

Master Crow protested with his raspy crow voice on the other end: "Do you think I'm an Uber?" I arrive just because you called?"

"We crows have class!"

Nancy let out a sigh. "Oh well, forget it then. I was originally going to say that if we catch the burglar this time, there will definitely be a reward..."

She intentionally drew out her words. "Since you're busy, I'll just have to find some random sparrow on the street to help out~"

"As for the prize money, I'll just have to enjoy it all by myself~"

Master Crow immediately changed his tune: "Wait! You can't put it like that! We in the crow world also believe in the spirit of chivalry!"

"Stay right where you are. I'm taking flight immediately!"

Nancy quickly added, "Wait! Bring along that little fat bat lying flat in the nest while you're at it. It has reached a new height of laziness lately."
